MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -One of the most significant differences between the nervous system and endocrine system is that the nervous system uses electrical impulses to send messages through neurons while endocrine glands use hormones to send messages to the target cells through the bloodstream.

Detailed explanation-2: -Part of the nervous system containing the brain and spinal cord. Peripheral nervous system. Part of the nervous system containing associated nerves that are not part of the brain or spinal cord. Endocrine system. The body system that regulates cells and organs using chemical substances called hormones.

Detailed explanation-3: -Where are Endocrine Glands Located in the Human Body? Hypothalamus-The hypothalamus links our endocrine and nervous systems together. The hypothalamus drives the endocrine system. Pituitary gland-The pituitary gland receives signals from the hypothalamus.

Detailed explanation-4: -The nervous system can respond quickly to stimuli, through the use of action potentials and neurotransmitters. Responses to nervous system stimulation are typically quick but short lived. The endocrine system responds to stimulation by secreting hormones into the circulatory system that travel to the target tissue.

Detailed explanation-5: -The hypothalamus is the link between the endocrine and nervous systems. The hypothalamus produces releasing and inhibiting hormones, which stop and start the production of other hormones throughout the body.
